Jarron Coleman, the best frosh in the MAC last year, missed the first game between these 2 teams and has missed all but the last 2 Ball St. games this season. Not sure if he's ready to be a difference maker.

Good observation about Coleman. Heard Good Ol Mr. Wilson interviewed last night on the Jeff Boals Show. He mentioned Coleman and it sounds like the team is very aware of what he can do.

Hopefully this game gets off the ground. Apparently there's a power outage across Athens.

Also, the Convo is currently on fire. I have friends working the TV crew for CBS tonight. It would seem that the game is in major doubt at this point.

If I could figure out how to post pictures on here I would. It appeared to be more smoke from the bottom of the building then anything. The Athens Fire Department was on the scene and I believe everything is under control. However, this is pure speculation, the Convo and the volleyball game that was going on inside could have caused the University power outage. That place has some major electrical issues.

The cause was a broken pole carrying high voltage wires in a remote location. The 6:00 estimate was only an automated estimate. I would be surprised if this gets played today.

AEP updated some of the outage spots on its map. 9AM restoration. Meanwhile, emergency lights are on in the Convo and trams are warming up.

I just saw a picture from down on the floor, and there's no way that this game will be broadcast on TV with the current amount of emergency lighting in the Convo.

Volleyball should be finished by 4:30. Unless it doesn't work for Ball State's schedule, why couldn't we do the evening again?

If need be, I wonder if we could use one of the regional campuses.

Balls fans are amazed that despite the power outage the bars in Athens are open and accepting cash only.

They just don't know....

Did a drunk hit a telephone pole?
